This feature makes it easier to check if there’s a newer version of the Play Store. Although the Android app hub could be updated before this addition, the option wasn’t prominently displayed. 9to5Google cites a report wherein an Android 10 user could access this new Play Store update button. So the feature may not be limited to a specific Android version. It’s worth pointing out that the feature isn’t widely rolling out yet. But since some users are seeing it already, we think it should make its way to compatible devices over the coming weeks. You can check if your device supports this feature by opening the Play Store and navigating to Settings – About. Given that this is a server-side update, the feature could already be live on your device.

Some users recently found the “last updated” section missing from the Play Store

Google is constantly issuing minor tweaks and bug fixes that mostly go unnoticed. Recently, the company was reportedly testing the removal of the “last updated” information for apps inside the Play Store. Some users reported that the section was gone from the app’s description on their Android devices. The last updated section is essential for apps as it allows users to know whether an app is still supported by the developer. Although Google didn’t comment on this, this was likely a glitch and not intentional. Meanwhile, the web version of the Play Store still lets you know when the app was last updated. Another Google product, YouTube, also got into hot water after hiding the dislike count on videos. While the button still exists, users can no longer see how many people have disliked a particular video. Needless to say, Google is having a rough few months amid these decisions. The company is also coming to terms with the negative feedback arising from the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. Some users have found that the new flagships refuse to charge with some third-party chargers, including car chargers. More recently, some users of the Pixel 6 complained of random signal loss.
